Hi Varun i have installed Ubuntu 8.04 with LTSP5 for a School Project
i cannot explain all the packages but i can say to you which package i have used! ltsp-server-standalone --> this package is the hole ltsp environment (standalone means that you use the ltsp server as dhcp server too) ltsp-server --> same packages as above but with a external dhcp server... openssh-server --> this is needed because the thin clients use a ssh tunnel to communicate with the server install the two packages with apt: apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone openssh-server after the installation just run this command to build the chroot environment for the thin clients: ltsp-build-client --arch i386 (the --arch i386 is only to ensure that the build command downloads the i386 packages and not this for amd64) you chroot directory is now located in /opt/ltsp/i368 configure your dhcpd.conf file ( the file is located in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf) and restart the deamon witch: /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart after that restart the tftp deamon with this command: invoke-rc.d openbsd-inetd restart thats all.... boot your thin client regards, Ivan Varun Pabrai wrote: > Hello, > > > I have installed Ubuntu-8.04. > > I want to setup ltsp-server. > > I have never done ltsp on Ubuntu. > > I have never done ltsp-5. > > apt-get showed me the following packages : > > ltsp-client > > ltsp-client - core > > ltspfs > > ltspfsd > > ltsp - manager > > ltsp - server > > ltsp - server - standalone > > Please explain me the individual packages and > Which of the following packages I need to install. > > > > Thanks > > Varun > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge > Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes > Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world > http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ > _____________________________________________________________________ > Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
